QU Hawk Life

Happy first week of summer! -Victor E. Hawk

Hammock garden is ready to use on this nice summer day-good way to relax and take a moment to yourself.

Congratulations to the graduating seniors from Unity, Quincy Notre Dame, Hamilton, Quincy Senior High, Western, Camp Point Central, Brown County, Liberty, Pittsfield, Griggsville-Perry, and Seymour!

This weekend, we celebrate the hard work, memories, friendships, and accomplishments of the High School Class of 2026 — and we’re excited that many of you will soon become QU’s Class of 2030 this fall.

Big futures start here.

Future Hawks — show us your graduation pics, caps & gowns, or QU gear in the comments and tag Quincy University so we can celebrate with you!

It's graduation weekend! This Saturday, our Quincy University Hawks will cross the stage and celebrate years of hard work, growth, memories, and achievement. We couldn't be prouder of the Class of 2026. At the same time, future Hawks across the country are celebrating this milestone as they prepare for their next chapter, and we can't wait to welcome many of you to campus this fall as members of the Quincy University Class of 2030.

To every graduate this weekend: take in the moment, celebrate the journey, and be proud of how far you've come. And let your mom take all the pictures she wants while you continue to smile!

Throughout the weekend, we'll be celebrating future Hawks from high schools near and far:

Future Hawks,
Comment your intended major,
Tell us where you're graduating from and when, and Tell us what you're most excited about for graduation, this summer, or your time at QU.

Alumni Hawks,
Share your graduation year and provide some advice for our future Hawks or our soon-to-be Alumni Hawks.

Families, friends, teachers, and supporters
Help us celebrate all of this weekend's graduates in the comments by providing pictures, tagging the graduate, telling us a funny anecdote about them, or anything that shows your pride and all that they've done.
